CCTV stands for Closed Circuit Television. While they are best known for capturing criminal activity in public areas and identifying thieves, surveillance cameras are also widely used on residential and business properties. Potential Camera Locations and Vulnerable Areas:

Back Garden

Side Access

Shed

Garage

Front Door Approach

Cashier's desk

Loading areas

Back door (where employees exit)

CCTV can also provide a crucial role in lessening general mischief and crime for your neighborhood or business property. Cameras can be movement activated so that they automatically change the TV channel to show the camera picture when movement is detected. Such systems are particularly good for the elderly and disabled, who need to be able to see and recognize callers at the front door. This feature is equally as beneficial for businesses with the need to screen entrants.
